U.S. Senator Kamala Harris visited the Otay Mesa Detention Center in San Diego on Friday and met with asylum seekers being held there from Honduras and El Salvador who have been separated from their children. She said she left after seeing the situation with her own eyes feeling she and other members of congress had been misled as to the conditions the asylum seekers are living.
